About this list:

Anybody can get Mom perfume, clip-on earrings, or a gift certificate to Hometown Buffet. But how many of you can select a gift that will render her speechless? One that makes her wonder on which side of the family the gene mutation occurred. Show her your originality and modishness. Peruse this list of gifts I could never give my own Mother. I'll start checking out the earring sales rack at Macy's....

Qualifications:

Experienced daughter and mother. Sporadic wife.

CANDLE CARVER

6 people recommended this item

Description

What Mom wouldn't appreciate a candle carver like this? How many times have I looked at an apple and thought: If only I could easily turn this into a votive holder, how much richer my life would be. This should work well with potatoes and perhaps even a slice of lasagna for that ultimate Italian dinner candlelight experience. (via Perpetual Kid)

Carson Lighted MagniGrip Tweezers

First to recommend

Description

Oh my...this is a REAL FIND and a bargain to boot . Mom will love this once she gets over the fact that you are giving this to her so she can better view those chin whiskers we are not supposed to mention. On second thought, maybe not the best mother's day gift but they would be a great anonymous stocking stuffer.

Wiggling Hula Guy Dashboard Decoration

First to recommend

Description

He dances a fierce hula right on the dashboard of your car. You can match him up with a dancing hula girl but he doesn't mind going solo. He also doesn't mind sharing the dance floor with other hula guys. He can swing both ways!

If your Mom is the nostalgic type, you'll score big with this gift.

Adopt a Donkey

2 people recommended this item

Description

I'd like to state for the record that I did not come online tonight to buy a donkey.

However, there are a few phrases in life that I have discovered I can't resist.

"He is a very mischievous donkey" is one of them.

So may I introduce my new donkey, Oscar to you. Yes. I paid 15 pounds to adopt a donkey. Yes, I realize I will never hear the end of this. No, you may not pet my donkey. Go adopt your own.

**For a few extra quid, get the DVD of your donkey so you can show him off to your friends. Or just stare at him and air pet him. Whichever. (via AVerte)

pink ladiez tool kit

12 people recommended this item

Description

The perfect accompaniment to the Pink Car Kit. Dad won't be sneaking Mom's tools anymore. Now if we could just stop him from wearing her shoes and wig, life would be much easier.
